Cash contributions million

Respuesta :

Answer:

$53

Explanation:

The merged data in the question have to be separated first before answering the question as follows:

Projected benefit obligation, January 1 = $630

Plan assets (fair value), January 1 = $600

Plan assets (fair value) December 31 = $650

Benefit payments to retirees, December 31 = $69

Actual return = Plan assets (fair value), January 1 × 11% = $600 × 11% = $66

Cash contribution = Plan assets (fair value) December 31 - Plan assets (fair value), January 1 - Actual Return + Benefit payments to retirees, December 31

Therefore, we have:

Cash contribution = $650 - $600 - $66 + $69 = $53

Therefor, the amount of those contributions is $53.
